MONMOUTH — Ashley Sims has returned to her alma mater to serve as women’s golf coach at Monmouth College.

Sims is a graduate of Alexis High School and a 2005 graduate of Monmouth. She comes to Monmouth from Knox College, where she was head softball coach and had stints as an assistant coach in women’s basketball and volleyball.

In addition to women’s golf coach, Sims also will serve as director of wellness at Monmouth. Both positions were vacated by Molly McNamara, who had 11 all-conference selections in her nine years as coach.

The Fighting Scots placed third in the 2013 Midwest Conference Championships.
